Anheuser-Busch, InBev & Others Aim to Buy Czech Staropramen (StarBev)

From Reuters:

Beer heavyweights including Anheuser-Busch InBev NV, on the hunt for assets in faster-growing markets, are examining a possible purchase of the owner of Czech lager Staropramen in a deal that could be valued at as much as $3 billion, according to people familiar with the matter.

CVC Capital Partners—which has owned the brewer, called StarBev, since it bought it from Anheuser in December 2009—has received a number of takeover approaches for the business since late last year, the people said. The process is in early stages and might not lead to an imminent sale
